Case/bottle beer accounts for 75% of consumption and keg beer accounts for 25% of consumption. Thus, 419.54 thousand gallons are from case/bottle beer while 139.85 thousand gallons come from keg beer.

Wholesale price per gallon for bottle/can beer is calculated to be $7.65. We are using $4.32 for the wholesale six-pack price because a perceptual map analysis indicated that Coors, Budweiser, and Miller Lite are positioned similarly in consumers’ minds. Study I shows both Budweiser and Miller Lite pricing at $4.32 for a wholesale six-pack. The wholesale gallon price is obtained by multiplying $4.32 with 1.77 to obtain $7.65.

Wholesale price per gallon for keg beer is estimated to be $3.45 ($7.62 * 0.45) as the case context states that keg beer prices at 45% of the price of bottled

    MCB should also repackage the Zebra brand beer to take advantage of the less expensive paper label. I fee that this will increase per case margin and eliminate the problems with the bottle supply coming out of Mexico. It has been estimated that MCB could save between $0.50 - $1.00 per case by using standard bottles with paper labels. Also, the distributors and retailers perceive the paper labels to be of a better quality. Therefore, MCB should take advantage of this perception and savings by changing from painted bottles to those with paper…

    The Coors Brewing Company is the fourth-largest brewer in the United States. Coors is also renowned for operating the Golden, Colorado brewery, the largest single brewery facility in the world. When Larry Brownlow wanted to open a new Coors beer distributorship for a two-county area in southern Delaware, he was faced with the decision of which research he needed Manson and Associates to complete for determining the market potential of a two-county area in southern Delaware. Brownlow was fully behind the building of a distributor in Delaware and quit his sales job and used the money from his annual trust income. Brownlow and his wife believed this was the best investment because of Coors history and popularity with many consumers in adjacent states to Delaware region.…

    Coors was very successful through the mid 70s. What was its strategy historically? ( by approximately 1975) Looking at the organization of the Coors Company, different approaches are observed within its business operations. The company is guided by a vital principal "Coors had always stressed quality and self-reliance." In addition through the mid 70s, few factors and functional areas were a proof for this statement, putting more weight and consideration into production, operation, marketing and finance decisions. Coors did not follow the example of its competitors to use outside suppliers, instead the company kept its way of traditional manufacturing. The firm relied on its own equipment and developed operations with own technology. An aspect that gave Coors competitive advantage over the other brewers was noticing the consumption shortages and maintaining the right amount of production. In addition, company's positioning helped the firm to fill the deficit and gain a favorable market share in some locations. Coors perception of the product was that it had to keep its valuable features and quality because this way the company could afford and sustain a constant premium price in the market. The very little promotion and relying on self advertisement of the products was another successful decision that was working well for the company. Coors marketing strategy was to sell the product by itself. However, a steady moment of flat numbers convinced the company that a marketing input was needed. Along with the introduction of the new light beer between 1975 and 1980, this time, Coors Company followed the increased trend in the beer industry and created their first new brand since the year of 1958. On the other hand, in the mid 70s, the company's financial approach and views about their capital structure maintained the same. Throughout their whole business cycle, Coors dominantly stick to equity and strived to maintain zero debt. In the period through the mid 70s those…
